Everything I had
Am I not rich enough?
I would have given you every penny I had
Am I not caring enough?
I would have listened to every thought in your head
I would have brought you soup if you were sick
Shared ice cream with you under the beating sun
I would have bundled with you under blankets in the cold winter nights
Everything I have
Everything I am
All my feelings hanging on a clothes line
Out to dry
Isn’t even
Worth a reply
Now I look down
At my empty hands
Because I gave you
Everything ...
I would have given you every penny I had
Am I not caring enough?
I would have listened to every thought in your head
I would have brought you soup if you were sick
Shared ice cream with you under the beating sun
I would have bundled with you under blankets in the cold winter nights
Everything I have
Everything I am
All my feelings hanging on a clothes line
Out to dry
Isn’t even
Worth a reply
Now I look down
At my empty hands
Because I gave you
Everything ...

The Stars Align
The stars said we’re compatible
We’re both water signs
How romantic to think
That we have a universal link
We’re ruled by emotion
Together we could float in the ocean
When we connect
It’s supposedly unparalleled devotion
I read about everything we could be
Pages and pages of possibilities
I though you were my soulmate
But you didn’t even show up to our date
We’re both water signs
How romantic to think
That we have a universal link
We’re ruled by emotion
Together we could float in the ocean
When we connect
It’s supposedly unparalleled devotion
I read about everything we could be
Pages and pages of possibilities
I though you were my soulmate
But you didn’t even show up to our date

Skin against skin
I’ll romance you
I’ll make you swoon
I’ll hold you tight
Every night
I’ll kiss your eyelids
And seep into your dreams
I’ll rest my head on your chest
And listen to your heartbeat
Intertwined limbs
Skin against skin
Under these covers
We belong to each other
I’ll make you swoon
I’ll hold you tight
Every night
I’ll kiss your eyelids
And seep into your dreams
I’ll rest my head on your chest
And listen to your heartbeat
Intertwined limbs
Skin against skin
Under these covers
We belong to each other

You’re my fantasy
In my mind
I could fantasize about anyone
But my head always chooses
To make love
To you
I could fantasize about anyone
But my head always chooses
To make love
To you

The warm and fuzzies
My pen used to be filled
With my tears
From heartbreak
I’d spread my tears
Over the pages
Spilling my soul
Since I met you
My heart doesn’t cry
So my pens run dry
Instead I feel
Warm and fuzzy
Sweet and lovey
There’s a tenderness
In my body
Aching for you
There’s a softness
In my voice
When I talk to you
I get nervous
And shy
Just at the thought of you
Forgive me
I’m not good at writing
Love poems
You see
I had...
With my tears
From heartbreak
I’d spread my tears
Over the pages
Spilling my soul
Since I met you
My heart doesn’t cry
So my pens run dry
Instead I feel
Warm and fuzzy
Sweet and lovey
There’s a tenderness
In my body
Aching for you
There’s a softness
In my voice
When I talk to you
I get nervous
And shy
Just at the thought of you
Forgive me
I’m not good at writing
Love poems
You see
I had...

If only you knew
If only you knew
The countless atrocities
My heart has had to take
The countless nights I’ve spent awake
Tormented by heartbreak
The countless atrocities
My heart has had to take
The countless nights I’ve spent awake
Tormented by heartbreak

DARK POEM

My Nightmare
I lay still
My complexion pale
My lifeless body on a table
Police tape around the crime scene
My body sliced open
Insides removed
I’ve been filled with black liquid
It drips down my sides
Like ribbons of hate
My innards replaced with waste
My body used
Mutilated
I stare down at the gruesome scene
My corpse defiled
Dehumanized
Trapped in this nightmare
Screaming, screaming
My body doesn’t utter a sound
My soul has been ripped into shreds
My mind...
My complexion pale
My lifeless body on a table
Police tape around the crime scene
My body sliced open
Insides removed
I’ve been filled with black liquid
It drips down my sides
Like ribbons of hate
My innards replaced with waste
My body used
Mutilated
I stare down at the gruesome scene
My corpse defiled
Dehumanized
Trapped in this nightmare
Screaming, screaming
My body doesn’t utter a sound
My soul has been ripped into shreds
My mind...

The End
Holding my book close to my chest
I permitted it into my head
The words arose from the pages
Into my eyes they bled
As my fingertips grazed the last page
I read the last breath
The characters fled
And died in the graveyard inside my head
I permitted it into my head
The words arose from the pages
Into my eyes they bled
As my fingertips grazed the last page
I read the last breath
The characters fled
And died in the graveyard inside my head

You’re so perfect
You’re like a model
So perfect in every way
Like I sculpted you
In my dreams from clay
I can’t compare
I can’t compete
I can’t contend
I surrender
Because I can’t win
I give in
Before it even begins
So perfect in every way
Like I sculpted you
In my dreams from clay
I can’t compare
I can’t compete
I can’t contend
I surrender
Because I can’t win
I give in
Before it even begins

Demons of my past
These demons of my past
Are always laying waiting
To eat me alive
Whenever I close my eyes
If I try to reach out to another
They shun me in shame
All because of things out of my control
The scars etched into my soul
Some crimes I’m guilty of
I don’t try to push the blame
I walk to the gallows everyday
My head hanging in shame
If things had been different
If I had felt the warmth of love
Instead of an icy facade
Perhaps, I wouldn’t have turned out this way
Are always laying waiting
To eat me alive
Whenever I close my eyes
If I try to reach out to another
They shun me in shame
All because of things out of my control
The scars etched into my soul
Some crimes I’m guilty of
I don’t try to push the blame
I walk to the gallows everyday
My head hanging in shame
If things had been different
If I had felt the warmth of love
Instead of an icy facade
Perhaps, I wouldn’t have turned out this way

All the things I should do
My mind races
With everything that I need to do
But all I can do is lay here
Trying to hold myself together
My fingers can barely move
There’s a twitch now and again
There’s a numbness
Thought my entire body
My mind instructs me
But my body refuses to move
The stress builds and builds
Until I’m a torn up mess
A puddle of stress
With everything that I need to do
But all I can do is lay here
Trying to hold myself together
My fingers can barely move
There’s a twitch now and again
There’s a numbness
Thought my entire body
My mind instructs me
But my body refuses to move
The stress builds and builds
Until I’m a torn up mess
A puddle of stress

Invisible
I’m a tiny murmur
A forgettable whisper
A muffled scream
A silenced witness
I’m a delicate petal
That blows away in the wind
Leaving no trace
No memory
I’m unnoticeable
I’m forgettable
Commonplace
Invisible
A forgettable whisper
A muffled scream
A silenced witness
I’m a delicate petal
That blows away in the wind
Leaving no trace
No memory
I’m unnoticeable
I’m forgettable
Commonplace
Invisible
